I've forwarded the original mail to myself over a different address,
opened it with Thunderbird, saved the attachments -- they come
out fine.  Then I copied the Inbox, opened it with mutt, saved the
attachments -- and they come out mangled.  Mutt replaces every
byte between 80 and ff with a question mark (3f).  Somehow mutt
assumes that what is inside the base64 is or must be us-ascii, and
enforces this when showing and saving the file.  Mutt-bug.
